[Mods, I hope I am not out of line posting this, as it's a charitable event, and one of our own (ChefCosta) is participating]
Heres a great chance to support the DC Central Kitchen and Marthas Table, while enjoying an evening of top-notch drinks and/ or a first-class dinner.
The Sips is held on the evening of January 24 at the Newseum, and features some of the top mixologists and artisan nibbles in the DC area. The Suppers are hosted at various homes throughout the DC area on the evening of January 25, and the meals will be prepared by many of the best chefs in the area, and even some from other places (such as David Chang of NYCs Momofuko and Milk Bar fame).
Heres the general info:

Yeah, its not cheap, but it is tax-deductible, and since the chefs, servers, etc. are all volunteers and the food/ ingredients is donated that means the ticket money you spend is all going to wind up at DC Central Kitchen and Marthas Table.

I am not playing favorites here, but I can personally vouch for the food prepared by Michael Friedman of Red Hen, Michael Costa from Zaytinya and Cathal Armstrong of Restaurant Eve. As far as the rest are concerned, most are on my list of Must eat at their restaurant sometime real soon! I put in to be a volunteer for the Suppers -- I'll find out tomorrow if I made the cut, and if so which dinner I get to work at.
